Peter Steele of Type O Negative died yesterday of heart failure, no way im shocked right now and sad...
and what a great long hair he was too, he had lower back jet black hair that was kickass
Saw that online... indeed most sad.
Sad. I actually know him only from reputation. I'll listen the music.

Yes it is indeed very sad and a great loss to the metal music world and I was lucky to see Type-O play at Wacken a couple of years ago.
I know there was a hoax back in 2005 on their website, but all indications it is valid. On good source of confirmation is the BBC news website and it's not been reported there yet.

Sad especially when looking at pics of him he had an apparently great healthy hair and body, but I guess heart failure can strike even the fittest.
Remembering the hoax years ago I'm skeptical leaning toward believing it this time. If it is true a great loss and they did a lot of great stuff. I was with John when we saw them at Wacken and they were ok then but not as good as I've seen in the past.
Lets hope it's another hoax.

Damn :( I haven't listened to them a whole lot, but I've listened enough to hate to see this news. I hope its a hoax, but if they already did that I doubt they'd do it again. I feel like crap knowing that musicians deaths affect me more than deaths in my family. Oh well, my mind works in strange ways.

Well anytime a longhaired rock musician passes its a sad day for the fans of the music and the hair.I vividly remember when Metallica's own Cliff Burton was killed in that tour bus accident back in the 80s as not only was it a great lose of the person but changed the band for the worse in my opinion.Ride the Lightning my friends.
